I was using Opera to see the forums

yesterday, when I used waterfox (waterfoxproject.org)
I saw the sketchucation home page but just the header and footer for the forums and a HUGE empty space in between.
so here's what I did
I have adblocker - whitelisted sketchucation.com and buysellads.com
I have ghostery - whitelisted the above
avast .. (firewall AND malware settings whitelisted the above)
I disabled "https everywhere" for this site

I updated my java this morning

then a browser cache clear and POOF! fixed

I know this is probably old news for most of you - but just in case someone else needs the info in one place.. there it is.

Thanks to TIG for pointing me here to read up.

The one thread for adblockers. there was a suggestion to go messing around in the hosts file in the system 32 directories - scary.. glad the above worked for me.

ah.. okiedokie - I realized that I was treading in off topic waters ..
I have both adblocker and ghostery disabled for all of sketchucation.com - didn't know about the buysellads.com site.
If adding that one to my exceptions list doesn't work, I'll toddle down the hall to browser land
thanks TIG

It is waterfox - waterfoxproject.org - I think it's got it's toes under the mozilla umbrella--
very similar to firefox though, but for 64 bit programming
I do a pretty good system clean every week - Sundays.. adv care, wise 365, avast, spybot and cCleaner - so my cache is cleaned regularly.

It's been a health issue.. thanks again
while I'm asking things that have probably been asked before...any ideas why I can't see the forum pages with the waterfox browser? All I get is the header... I had to use opera to get here.

thanks - I hadn't been here in ages - did a search and didn't find what I was looking for

I had been using sk-8.something - quite happy with my large toolbar down the left hand side of my screen - might anyone know how to get it back over there? I really prefer more vertical real estate than I currently have
thanks

ok.. thanks and windows 7 ult

tested several of those suggestions.. seems I have an issue with scaling. Immediately after scale operation (fredoscale) splat - with or without components.. with or without purging.
might be time to check for plugin updates

thanks

Here's what I am doing
load one component for scaling.
draw a rectangle
delete componant
scale one side of that rectangle
pick ANY other tool.. and I mean just choose it. Select.. move..push/pull, even zoom extends and
splat

5x now! It's making me crazy
